The Holy Quran 17:106 — Surah Al-Isra

Arabic text

وَقُرْءَانًا فَرَقْنَـٰهُ لِتَقْرَأَهُۥ عَلَى ٱلنَّاسِ عَلَىٰ مُكْثٍ وَنَزَّلْنَـٰهُ تَنزِيلًا

Translation

We have divided the Qur'aan (into verses and Surahs) so that you (O Muhammad ﷺ) may recite it steadily (at intervals) to the people (so that they may understand and learn it) and We have revealed it gradually (over a period of approximately 22years, 2 months, 22days).

Tafsir (excerpt) — Tafsir Usmani

The importance of the words of the Quran: the principal aim of the revelation of the Quran is to understand its meaning and act upon it, which is called tadabbur (careful reflection) and tadhakkur (taking heed).
